Hello today dear peers!

today I'll be submitting my contest artwork this week, hosted by: 
www.deviantart.com/brambleclaw…

These characters belongs to ICYSTORM / BrambleClawandJayPaw:

Sean    | toyhou.se/731717.sean        | www.deviantart.com/sphelon8565…
Amoret | toyhou.se/1310486.amoret  | www.deviantart.com/sphelon8565…

I had to expand my freedom of drawing/expanding some characteristics especially with Amoret though given with a little lack of info/ description but neither the less, I'd asked the author some short biography about her. **Thus I drew them in outlines first above:

but more importantly, I tried something that'll capture an eye catching depiction according to the author's written concept and lore, here it's up to him how
he'll write his own story accordingly, especially with these two lovebirds.

Other than that. That's my entry so far right there folks

Anyways thanks again, Icystorm. Hope you'll like this work and find some inspirations for it.

Oh wow, there's such a strong sense of narrative and emotion to this one. Their poses are dynamic and somewhat touching, from the way the girl leans forward to how he raises his hand in response to her touch. Love it <3 Also great job with the colors and atmosphere - conveys the mood really well

This is overall pretty good, but one thing that stands out is that with such a large distance between the woman's eye and bridge of the nose, if her face was turned towards the viewer, the distance between the eyes would be too wide and also the shading implies that the face is more pointed than round.

 Sketch in purple is a rough approximation of how the face might look like when rotated.

sphelon8565 In reply to Seeeks [2018-12-05 01:35:03 +0000 UTC]

Ah, thank you there.

Your impression approach to my piece is something I called "literal", which conflicts a style choice between
other types of portrayal of such work and perhaps a different perspective. though it can still be something useful especially if anyone were to repaint this in a realistic approach than the semi-realism+anime ones.

I'm still practicing Semi-Realism + anime styles, little by little to realism and there's really no perfect form 
of executing the strokes nor exact portrayals. Other than that, this is still a learning piece and my perfection approach and other forms of character impression may be different from yours. maybe you have a different impression on how I should place the shadows on her face**I don't know.

Right now, I'll just have to leave this "as as" and would not go bothered by it.
But thanks for stopping by here anyways

Seeeks In reply to sphelon8565 [2018-12-05 05:55:56 +0000 UTC]

Sorry if I came off as blunt or made you feel like I was attacking your style. That wasn't my intention. The reason I didn't write a lengthy review was because the rest of the image works in the style chosen and I wouldn't change anything else. Optimally, most cartoons and anime aim to convey a sense of a believable form, so the positioning of body parts creates an illusion of an object with mass and depth. There are styles that are intentionally flat like Peppa Pig and South Park, but I can tell that you were going for an impression of roundness.

I'll try to refrain from commenting on your works in the future but I might not always remember who I've interacted with or recognize individual styles, so if I accidentally comment on future works, I hope you understand that it's intended as helpful in a way that adapts to the style, rather than implying that everything has to be photorealistic.

Hello, I’m commenting for ProjectComment  

I always love seeing how artists illustrate different characters, and in this artwork you’ve done great job! The characters’ poses look natural and anatomically correct but still have a distinct style, which is always good. I especially like the boy’s pose and the gesture of his right hand, simple things like that can express a lot of emotion, which seems to be the goal of this artwork. Both’s facial expressions are well done as well! You have eye for little details in the face that make up the expression. I can practically empathize with both characters, just based on looking at this painting.

I also like how you painted their clothes. The values seem about right, and the small details really make the characters seem more alive. Shading is soft where needed to be, and a bit sharper just in the right spots. Overall, I think the characters are very successful. The scenery has great depth, with trees on the background at varying distances. The faraway trees are mostly just grey shapes, which amplifies the feeling of depth. The characters seem close to the viewer, and the tree just next to them helps perceiving the scene as a 3D space rather than just a 2D picture. The rays of light look nice.

Personally, I’d add some more detail into the scenery, maybe by adding some sharper/darker lines and shades on the tree trunks or brighter colors on the grass. All in all, the ground seems a bit dull, and could use some more contrast. On the other hand, grey scenery might be what you were going for? The shadows near the girl’s legs could be a bit darker, as well. I also think there should be less light cast on the girl’s face, considering the light is coming from behind her.

It is a beautiful illustration altogether. The viewer’s attention is immediately drawn to the characters and their emotional interaction. Great work!

Greetings   

I'd like to thank you for giving this work a beautiful constructive commentary
Sure is great to read admiring comments from the likes of yours, gives me some motivation as well
 

Also your approach to my piece gives me a possible insight on how you handle certain improvements
under your own impression, I hope I'd like to try it sometime and actually, I wasn't aiming for an all out grey scenery,. Sometimes I couldn't decide the slightest color values I'd like to choose, it's like I couldn't decide between warm and cold or a bright and dark scenery and kept other versions not shown here**still under practicing on realism though and under the stage of semi-realism+anime style and this pretty much is still a learning piece for me. **even as a contest piece

stepping aside the idea of following other suggestions to redo a painting, it depends on my time **
:coughing: right now I'd rather make new form of work and move forward whatever's under my sleeves these days...

Anyways, I'll just see what I can dig up these days under my directions and
Thanks for stopping by here for giving my piece a comment, I am grateful to hear you enjoy my work.

I love everything about this. They are two of my oldest characters, so seeing the two of them together finally is too much for words. The expressions capture them perfectly: Sean a broken and scared soul and Amoret gentle and caring. The background is also really nice and has an ominous feel to it. Thank you so much for having taken the time to join my contest, and I apologize it took so long for me to comment.
